'I Dream a World' is a hopeful poem with a subjective and personal style. The persona, who I would think to be Hughes, is writing about his wants for our developing world...
"I dream a world where man
No other man will scorn"
"I dream a world where all
Will know sweet freedom's ways"
Hughes repeats 'I dream a world' as though trying to make a statement. He also has two types of boundaries; Moral Boundaries, such as our greed, and Racial Boundaries, such as the colour of our skin doesn't matter.
Hughes uses language tequnigues such as similes...
"And joy, like a pearl"
And personification...
"Where wretchedness will hang its head"
To get the readers of the poem thinking. He also uses a ryhme scheme of 'abcb'. I enjoyed reading this poem and hearing the views of Hughes, which i couldn't agree more with.
